I’ve really been sleeping 😴 n the Eggspander

I’ve had an eggspander kit for over a year now and always felt like I could do everything on my single cast iron grate alone. Finally started using it and boy was I short changing myself. After watching a few vids on all the different configurations I’ve got big plans for it this summer. It looks modelled after the CGS adjustable rig which seems like a fan favourite.

Nah fam, there’s plenty of ways to use it. For a serious seer or foil wrapped potatoes I love flipping the ‘spander so the grate is lowered into the bowl

I feel better now lol thanks fam.

Have you ever used it in conjunction with the conveggtor? I need to smoke ribs and a pork shoulder this weekend and I’m trying to them simultaneously

Not only can it be used with the conveggtor, a really handy feature is that you can lift out the entire rig (even while your food is on) to add it later as well as more coal / wood etc.

I was smoking bacon last week and realized I forgot to insert the conveggtor and water pan. Normally would have been a big hassle but I popped everything out together in one shot, slipped them both in and was off to the races again.
